| Summary | "Rosmersholm: Dramo en kvar aktoj" by Henrik Ibsen is a play written in the late 19th century. The drama takes place in Rosmersholm, a once-grand manor in Norway, and centers on complex character relationships and societal issues, exploring themes of memory, ideology, and personal freedom. The central characters include Johannes Rosmer, a former pastor and owner of the estate, and Rebekka West, who resides in Rosmersholm and has her own troubled past. The opening of the play introduces us to Rebekka West as she sits engaging in needlework while conversing with Sinjorino Helseth about the arrival of Johannes Rosmer. The atmosphere is filled with a sense of anticipation as they note Rosmer's hesitant return to the estate, a place filled with memories of his deceased wife, Beate. Through dialogues, hints of superstitions regarding a "white horse" that symbolizes lingering spirits are presented, foreshadowing the emotional and psychological burdens carried by the characters. As old friends and tensions re-emerge, the conversation touches on the changes in Rosmer's views and the tumultuous social dynamics surrounding him amidst a backdrop of political and personal upheaval, setting the stage for deeper conflicts to unfold.
